The Israelites walked up a steep hill from the entrance into Jerusalem at the Pool of Siloam to the Temple Mount speaking words of praise from the Psalms - what are called "Songs of Ascent." They entered the courts of the Lord with praise. Enter your day, enter worship, enter everything you do with praise and thanksgiving.Have a WONDERFUL Thanksgiving tomorrow! Don't eat too much and stay out of the stores until Thanksgiving is over!!!!
